Attention Parents: Bus #8 will run its regular route as scheduled and then complete a second run to pick up students assigned to Bus #54, which may result in a slight drop-off delay for those students who ride Bus #54.
School starts at 7:55 AM, Tuesday through Friday. Students must be in class by that time, not just arriving in the parking lot. Punctuality is crucial for success, and arriving early helps students prepare for learning. Late arrivals often miss important announcements and take longer to settle into lessons.
For Intermediate and Primary students, arrival after 7:55 AM but before 8:25 AM counts as tardy. Two tardies equal one-half day of unexcused absence. Secondary students with repeated 1st-period tardiness face consequences: Saturday School on the third offense and In-School Suspension (ISS) after the sixth. Arriving early helps avoid these penalties.
If a student exceeds ten unexcused absences in a semester, the District will notify authorities, and the parent or guardian may face a civil penalty.
Arriving on time supports both your child's learning and others in the classroom. Establishing routines is essential for success, and punctuality is a valuable life skill. If you face challenges with punctuality, please notify the school office or reach out to discuss assistance.

Wynne Public Schools Implements New Safety Measure for Sporting Events
Wynne Public Schools has introduced a new policy requiring all students in grades 6-12 to present valid identification when entering school-hosted sporting events to enhance student safety and supervision. This measure applies to both Wynne students and those from other districts.
This approach prioritizes student welfare and reinforces the importance of responsible adult supervision at school events.
Students who do not have an ID cannot enter without an adult. Student supervision will be the responsibility of the adult attending the event with the student.
Valid forms of ID include a driver's license or school-issued ID.
